Hi!
Fell on your page quite by accident…loved it! I am totally different in demographic profile – most often solo travel, been at it for more than 25 years, Sri Lankan Female.
But I was so taken with how similar your style is to a solo traveler. It has to take a very special level of curiosity, tolerance and love for all things to travel this way with kids.
Loved what you said about bus travel. – my sentiments exactly 🙂

Will e-mail you to talk about some travel links. Hope that is ok.
All the very best for great times ahead!

Hi! We are planning to head off next year for as long as funds allow, we are planning on driving in our camper, we have 4 children (4,8,10,10) do you know what the camping scene is like around Asia? I know we will be fine through Europe but I haven’t found much info on camping in Asia!

Hi! I’m Carmen. I have been travelling with Aitana (12) and Malena (8) for 7 months. I am also taking a break in Bangkok at the moment. If you have time and energy I would love to catch up with you!
Regards
Carmen

Send me an email Francesca, the address is above, I’ll see what I can do. But personally, we like independent travel, other families can be tough to be around sometimes. But tell me exactly what this thing is and I’ll see.

Hi 😊 we are currently living in Iceland and are planning to sell everything this year and go travelling for at least 12 months in Australia, NZ or Canada (we are going to apply for a 12 month holiday visa for all 3 and see which one we get in) We have 2 children who will be 10 and almost 8 when we leave. We would like to home school them, any and all advice would be very gratefully received.
Mandy, David, Romani and Thor 😊

Hi,
Thanks so much for the wonderful information you share! I am interested in work-exchange programs for families interested in world schooling. I would love to make a living doing a blog or something else online but am not there yet. Also, we would like to have a sense of community with other like-minded folks. We currently live in the states (Ohio), are older parents with an only child and no extended family nearby. My husband is British and I was born in the states. We are adventurous, open-minded, spiritual/non-religious folks and are seeking like-minded families. Can you offer us any advice or links on how to find these types of communities? We own our home and would be open to house swapping for extended periods too. Thanks so much! Paula

I don’t think the communities you describe exist Paula. Do you mean online or in real life? We travel, so we’re only in one place a few days. For online community join our Living Differently Facebook group. Best wishes.

I don’t homeschool, unschool or worldschool – yet. My kids are in public school at the moment (2nd and 3rd grades) and the thought of doing anything other than public school is enticing yet intimidating. I am not a teacher (certified, that is). I do realize that as a mom, I can teach quite a bit.

I grew up in the traditional school system so breaking away from it seems very confusing to me. I don’t know where to begin to seek answers to my questions like, what do colleges think of kids’ resumes without traditional schooling? Do these kids that are unschooled, or worldschool still need to take standardized testing? If not, how do you know if they are on “target”? I’ve heard stories of some children being found in a home without going to school (granted these are abuse cases) but how does unschooling differ from “kids kept from going to school”?

These are just basic questions I have – any tips on where to begin?
Thanks!

Please find the relevant pages of this website Denrunr, all your questions are fully answered. This is our media contact page, find the homeschooling section either top menu ” worldschooling”, or drop down menu in the right hand side bar of the front page. Thanks.

You have been a big part of my guidance as I’ve set to embark on worldschool’ing our 10 year old son. I’ve never homeschooled and your website has been a life-saver. How to you find the local art for your kids? I am such a novice (only travelled out of the US a handful of times before this) and any input you have I would cherish! It’s very difficult figuring out socialization for him. He’s with me or adults most of the time (our daughter is a freshman in college in the US). We just finished a short first leg that took us to Sweden to visit friends and Norway. I plan to do a WW II study next and will head to France, Prague, and Germany. We are doing Khan academy now, but am going to look into Minecraft, as he loves his Minecraft! Haha!

Again, I am so grateful for your blog and appreciate all of your insight!

Thank you for such practical, organized, accessible information. This blog has given me confidence to step out and reach toward my dreams of travel with my 6 children. We leave on trip #1 in 5 weeks. This blog is where I go back to when needing to feel steadied. Thank you.
Now please, can you direct me to where you’ve written about your practices to keep passports and money safe while travelling?.

Hello, I was wondering if you would be willing to offer specific itinerary advice. We are a Seattle family of three with one 9 year old, and have an obligation in Sri Lanka July 19 – 31. We thought perhaps we could piggyback other destinations before this trip–leaving around July 1–but I am having a hard time putting this together in my mind. My thoughts include Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Singapore and Bali. I know what I would do my myself, but we have a child to think about. Also, I would like to go where the weather makes the most sense. We are budget-minded. Thanks a lot.

Must say… amazing story and very inspirational….. keeps us motivated!. Just had one quick question.

We are a Colombian/American family with 3 1/2 and 1 1/2 year old boys. We are doing our RTW now.and currently in Thailand. We are heading Westboand and looking for a place to stop and stay for 2/3 months. Any ideas?

Just looking for small town, near beach, and kid friendly. .. we were thinking Greece, Montenegro, Spain, Italy, ..but are open to anything that we hit on the way back from Bangkok to NYC.

If you had any ideas… would love to hear them… even just the names of towns,as I dont mind doing more research 🙂

Croatia? Some lovely coastline there and very cheap. Anywhere in Greece, love the food! Crete? We really enjoyed mainland Greece last year, bags of history. Really, take your pick, you’ve got endless choices, if price is a factor stick with eastern Europe, once you get to western Europe prices are high.

Hello Alyson, what a fantastic site full of great resources and information, I have been reading various articles on world/home-schooling. This is a new realm for me as my little one (first child) is only two and has just started nursery here in the UK. My dream is to travel with him whilst he is this little so I will soon be starting a VA course which will be teaching me the most current in demand online-digital skills so I can be location independent. This option is costing me quite a bit but I have to invest in my future i guess! I would like to homeschool my son part time, maybe two or three days of the week and for him to spend the rest of his week at a school somewhere where he can learn maths, english and socialize etc… im not very good at Maths !! lol. I was just wondering if you know of anyone managing to support themselves off a VA income and or homeschooling part time??Any info/insights would be great ! Many thanks Hanna 🙂

I’m sure people do Hanna and I’ve taken on VA work from time to time ( Pinterest!). It’s fixed income but it’s also fixed hours so very difficult to travel at the same time, I even find it hard to work for myself when we’re actively travelling, this is why we take big breaks in London or Romania, it’s work and school time. With regard maths, I’m not great either, I got a C at 14 years old and never felt I was “good” at maths despite being a professional scientist. I know now more maths than EVER, thanks to Khan Academy, it’s free and Sal Khan explains things so brilliantly, it’s a million miles better than school, do that together instead! I don’t think part time school is generally an option and kids socialise far better outside of segregated institutions where they’re forced to spend their days with a bunch of same-age kids not of their choosing. Good luck! ( Join our Living Differently Facebook Group for more support)

Hi. Im a single mum currently considering taking my daughter out of school for a whole school year (year 9) to travel the world. Im completely on board with all the benefits this has to offer, but i am struggling with the practicality and was hoping for some advice please? I work at the school my daughter goes too, and happily they have said that there is no problem with keeping my job open. Keeping her school place open is another story and at the moment this is a huge stumbling block as the whole trip cant go ahead unless i can return and be guaranteed to get her back into the school for her GCSEs – it really is a wonderful school, and more importantly has an amazing SEN department (my daughter is on the autistic spectrum). If you know a way i can achieve the dream without losing the school place, please do tell!! Many thanks! 🙂

To take a child out of school you need to un-enroll her or risk truancy, so yes, you will lose your place in the UK. Have you considered not doing GCSEs, they’re not compulsory? Take her out and keep her out. If you have to work obviously that’s an issue, but nothing says she has to be in school in the UK. If she feels she wants to do GCSEs, maybe she wants to get onto a course that demands them, the British iGCSE system exists, no school attendance required. you do not need GCSEs to progress in life, earn a living, be self employed or get into university. But you can pick your subject, learn the work, take the exam.

Hi,
I was wondering if you have ever taught English for work whilst overseas with your family? I have noticed getting working visa’s for over 30’s is pretty much impossible, do you have any tips for things like this for a family and over 30’s.

Hi there, we are thinking of travelling for 3 months to Nepal, India and Sri Lanka…doing some research at the moment. We are a family of 5 and wondered if you had an idea of cost so that we can budget appropriately. We want to keep the cost as minimal as practical with 3 children. Thanks!

Hello – We are and Aussie family of 5 who are looking at being moved to either south east asia or London for my husbands employment. Two of our children are school age. Here in Australia the oldest is in Grade 1 (he is 6) and the next is in pre-primary (he is 5.) I believe pre-primary is known as reception in the UK.

Basically I would like to know has anyone home schooled the Australian curriculum overseas? If so, where do I start? There seems to be so many websites but is there a dummies guide on how to get started? We could move them into foreign schools but the years do not line up and I think they could get so much more from the experience being with me and exploring our new environment.

We will return to Oz in 2016 and I hope the children will fit back into the curriculum where they should. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Nat. Natalie.k.bradley@googlemail.com.

Just as easy to do it outside Australia as inside Natalie. My advice would be to just leave them to enjoy the year and not worry about it. If you need help email me contact@worldtravelfamily.com. You will not be able to register as an Australian homeschooler, but if the children are un-enrolled from school, they don’t need to be, they’re not truant. If you want to retain some form of registration you’ll have to do distance ed, but state regulations vary.

Hello there from Oz, I’m writing a post about Aussie family travel bloggers – could you let me know your email address and I’ll let you known when it’s posted. I write mainly about Sydney and about travel – yes, I’m one of those armchair travellers but joyfully in Adelaide for a couple of days right now.
